I don’t know what is up with Trader Joe’s products and the cooking directions. But this is another case of me telling you- don’t go by the package. Which is not to be confused by me saying don’t go buy the package.
The Latest Trader Joe’s Reviews
Trader Joe’s Moisturizing Lip Balm Set
There are some products that really represent 2020: face masks and toilet paper. For some, face masks have been a part of their job. For the rest of us, we are learning. Trader Joe’s doesn’t sell masks, but since so many of us are we’ve all come to the same conclusion: we all now have…
Trader Joe’s Black Truffle Cashew Pesto Sauce
So I’m a huge truffle fan. And over the past few years there have been a bunch of really good product hitting shelves (albeit seasonally). I get a little excited about stuff like this. Truffle just isn’t too common place.
Trader Joe’s Peppermint Chocolate Chunk Cookie Mix
So Holiday season is in full swing at Trader Joe’s. So many seasonal items are hitting shelves that it is almost hard to keep up. So, I’m going to tackle the bake at home mixes that are hitting shelves. So specifically if you haven’t seen them yet there is this Trader Joe’s Peppermint Chocolate Chunk…
Trader Joe’s Marula Facial Oil
I get excited when a new Trader Joe’s product lands in the health and beauty aisle. And best of all, this isn’t seasonal, but would still make a great gift especially if money is tight.
Trader Joe’s Branzino Fillets
On one particular trip to Atlantic City to visit my mother-in-law we stopped at one of the casino’s restaurants. On that menu that night was something that made both my husband and his mother laugh out loud: Sea Bass.
Trader Joe’s Advent of the Cocktail Hour
So if you are at Trader Joe’s there are a plethora of advent calendars to choose from. First, you have the traditional chocolate one that still sells for under $1. Then you have the cat advent calendar and the dog advent calendar. Heck, there even used to be an adult advent calendar sold a few…
Trader Joe’s Beef en Croute
This won’t be my usual introduction but here goes: I hope you are reading this review of Trader Joe’s Beef en Croute before you make this. Or at least before bake this fully according to the directions. A while back I reviewed the turkey en croute. But there is a key difference: the turkey is…
Trader Joe’s Jicama Wraps
One of my long standing complaints about new products at Trader Joe’s is that they tend to be carb heavy. But there is a substantial enough audience for good tasting low carb alternatives that have been all but ignore up until recently.
Trader Joe’s Spicy Pumpkin Curry
For far too long, I’ve heard many a comment (including my own written thoughts) about Trader Joe’s not selling their curry sauces in a jar. Yes, I know there is a Masala sauce on shelves, but it is no where close to the sauce on the frozen entrees.
Trader Joe’s Cinnamon Brooklyn Babka
Babka. I’m not going to lie to anyone when I say that the Chocolate Brooklyn Babka might be a staple in my household. But it do debate whether it is meant for breakfast or dessert because I’ve consumed it at both times of day. Sometimes twice a day.
Trader Joe’s Cacio E Pepe Ravioli
So in addition to the usual fall flavors of maple and pumpkin, we now have 2 cacio e pepe varieties on shelves: the frozen spaghetti and now this refrigerated ravioli.
Trader Joe’s Citronella Candle
While summer may be over, I find that I actually spend more time outside during the Fall. For me, New York humidity makes it so hard to sit outside. And yes, some days are pretty unbearable.
Trader Joe’s Fiochetti with Pink Sauce
Since this blog was started back in 2016, I’ve posted more than 1200 recipes or items. Which means there is a bit of a food memory here. And somewhere back in 2016 there used to be a somewhat similar product on store shelves. It was Trader Joe’s Prosciutto Perline pasta. It was the same pouch…
